About Plastic

Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine
Delrin® Acetal Resin Rods and Discs

Delrin® acetal resin, also known as acetal homopolymer, is stronger and stiffer than acetal copolymer.

Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine
Delrin® Acetal Resin Tubes

Delrin® acetal resin, also known as acetal homopolymer, is stronger and stiffer than acetal copolymer.

Slippery Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine
Delrin® Acetal AF Resin Rods and Discs

The addition of PTFE provides a more slippery, wear-resistant surface than standard Delrin® acetal resin. It’s commonly fabricated into pump components, gears, and bearings.

Rigid Glass-Filled Wear-Resistant
Easy-to-Machine Delrin® Acetal Resin Rods

A glass-fiber filler gives this material increased rigidity over standard Delrin® acetal resin. Use it to machine manifolds, impellers, and other parts that require rigidity.

Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine Acetal Copolymer

Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine Acetal Rods and Discs

An economical alternative to Delrin® acetal resin, this acetal copolymer offers similar wear resistance.

Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine Acetal Tubes

An economical alternative to Delrin® acetal resin, this acetal copolymer offers similar wear resistance.

Slippery Wear-Resistant
Easy-to-Machine Acetal Copolymer

A silicone additive gives this material a self-lubricating surface that reduces friction and extends the life of your parts.

Antistatic Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine Acetal Rods

This material prevents the buildup of static charges.

Moisture-Resistant Acetal Threaded Rods

These acetal threaded rods won't absorb moisture like nylon and fiberglass rods, so they're good for use in wet environments. They resist alcohol, gasoline, and solvents.

Ultra-Precision Lead Screws and Nuts

Metric Fast-Travel Ultra-Precision
Lead Screws and Nuts

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than lead screws with a single thread start.

Metric Ultra-Precision Lead Screws and Nuts

Also known as single-start and self-locking lead screws and nuts, these have a single thread that runs the length of the screw. The nut travels only when the screw turns, so your system won't unexpectedly move when the lead screw is at rest.

Fast-Travel Ultra-Precision Lead Screws and Nuts

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than lead screws with a single thread start.
